[mapguide-users] Fusion and Javascript
Hello All,
I'm having a lot of trouble with Fusion and javascript. I am somewhat
of a newb to fusion, so please bare with me.
I have a aspx page in the task pane which I have been adding some
buttons with some javascript too, in order to test things out.
At this point, it appears that any call to a function defined in
MapGuide.js (../fusion/mapguide/mapguide.js) won't break my code. For
example
"parent.document.getElementById('Map').widget.aMaps[0].drawMap();" would
refresh the map.
However, any calls to MapGuideViewerApi.js will not work.
I have tried including it into my page, and I have also tried calling it
in different fashion.
For example:
var Fusion = window.top.Fusion;
var map = Fusion.getWidgetById('Map');
map.Refresh();
Why won't the MapGuideViewerApi.js functions work? If they can't be
used, how do i zoom and digitize points?
Also, I mentioned that the mapguide.js functions work, yet setSelection
does not.
I get the following error
Fusion Error:
WARNING: Exception occurred in AJAX callback.
[object Error]
Location: {1} ({2})
xx)
At this point, the functions I need to work in order for my code to
function are:
setSelection
digitizePoint
digitizeRectangle
None of which work J
Any help or a push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Setup:
MGOS 2.0.1
Fusion 1.0.6
Autodesk MapGuide Studio 2009
Using IIS, VB, and VS 2005 Pro

RE: [mapguide-users] fusion and javascript
Thanks for the heads up Paul. I'm exicted to move my map to Fusion, but with
the lack of documentation it can be a bit frustrating.
I will try your tip and see how things work out.

I'm not using the viewer api thing but I can confirm that having a
comma after the last thing in an object declaration or array is not
valid for IE (but firefox silently ignores it).
Not sure about the var Fusion thing, but that seems reasonable since
the task pane runs inside an iframe which is a separate document and
doesn't automatically have references to its containing page variable
namespace.
It has just occurred to me that this might work better if you don't
include the MapGuideViewerAPI.js in your task page but rather include
it in your main index page and then reference its functions through
window.top ??? Then you wouldn't need to include the javascript files
in your task page - i.e. use window.top.DigitizePoint()
Cheers

RE: [mapguide-users] fusion and javascript
I have answered some of my own questions here.
Lines 253 and 321 in MapGuideViewerApi.js were continually breaking my code.
They were curly braces followed by a comma as part of the LineHandlers and
RectangleHandlers classes "},". Both of those lines are the closing braces
for the last functions in the class, and once I removed the commas following
the two curly braces mentioned, everything compiled.
Also, I had to add a reference to fusion "var Fusion = window.top.Fusion" to
the file.
